Easy to do and well worth spending a few bucks to make sure you don't run into unneccessary problems.During this process I also learned that it's very difficult to get new policies written while you have any open claims, so if you do run into an insurance issue - get it resolved quickly if you're slated to close on new property.

It is really pretty easy when you have someone else handling the paperwork.

I like a home that's a 3/2 its a perfect starter home fairly easy to market since the pmt should be under 600 to 700 per mo pmt.

So i am in the military and receive roughly 1400/month just for housing and where i stay now they take it all so i don't see that extra money.I was wondering if it would be a good idea to buy a manufactured home for say 40k and pocket the rest of the money left over from the mortgage for a year and a half until i leave the area.My concern is selling / renting out the manufactured home, do they sell or is it usually easy to find tenants ?
